Action item list on wiki (was Re: [ogsa-wg] OGSA Teleconference (August 17))

[Andreas Savva]

Hi Ravi,

I used 'a-z' at the end instead of a number for contrast. Also I have
yet to see a meeting produce more than 26 actions but if we ever manage
to do it we could always append another letter at the end. :-)

I thought about putting in the year but chose not to because an action
continuing for that long is either obsolete or it is a project. In
either case it shouldn't stay on this list! In other words, this list in
intended for short, one-off actions that don't need much tracking but
which we don't want to forget between meetings.

If the result of an action is to start a document then the action is
closed and we track issues relating to that document more formally in
that document's tracker. It's not the intention here to re-invent trackers.

Until now this list lived at the bottom of the minutes and stuff got
deleted once closed, with some explanation in the minutes. I think we
could have a heading (I like RS :-) but 'Done' would also be good) at
the end of the wiki page and move closed/resolved items under it with a
link to the relevant minutes; much like what Hiro does with the
teleconference schedule wiki page.
